I want Company employees to be able to search within a particular folder of my OneDrive

For this OneDrive folder, I have set share permissions as anyone in organization with link can view.

Now I have created a Flow which searches through the folders based on user input and email all files to the user. I have a PowerApp which takes user input and run the Flow.

It works perfectly when I run it from my account but fails when I used by another employee with exactly the same input.

Error on step: Find Files in Folder by Path

{

"status": 404,

"message": "The resource could not be found.",

"source": "api.connectorp.svc.ms"

}

Is it possible to have a Power App which takes user input and run Flow to search within my OneDrive folder?

Re: Search within OneDrive using Flow

I solved this myself by changing trigger.

When user submits data in PowerApps, instead of triggering flow from there, I am now storing data in SharePoint and triggering Flow when a new item is created in SharePoint List. This way Flow runs on my account and searches within OneDrive and emails the files.
